Is Karfik planning for a master's in the USA and can you help him with the process?
Yes, Karfik is planning for a master's in the USA, and I can help with the process.
He should start by shortlisting universities that offer master's programs in Computer Science, focusing on those that match his interests and preferred locations. Key steps include preparing academic transcripts, checking if GRE is required (many programs have waived it), and arranging English proficiency test scores (TOEFL or IELTS), letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, and a resume.
Application deadlines for January 2027 intake typically fall in early 2027 and may vary by university. Financial planning is important - he'll need to research tuition, explore scholarships or assistantships, and prepare proof of funds.
Once admitted, the next steps are confirming enrollment, applying for the F-1 student visa, arranging housing, and attending orientation.
